Officially retired

I have officially retired the first pair of white Asics 2130's.  I have decided that since they are the oldest pair, they are a little too dried out to run in anymore.  They have actually been downgraded to my gym rat shoes.  I made this decision yesterday when I needed to bring something with me to use instead of the running shoes that were already at work.  I was unable to run yesterday due to a follow up vet visit with Nora.  Turns out, she has some gunk in her ears and something growing out of one of her front teeth.  I can't remember what the vet called it, but eventually it will need to be cut away, and since she doesn't know which tooth its from, she will have to take out both teeth.  It's a small price to pay for my healthy baby.  I've noticed a considerable difference in her since giving her the ear drops and medications.  It's amazing what we will do for our pets!  

In other news, um.. Well, I don't have any other news!  I'll be running today after a week and a few days off.  I guess I just got busy with the holidays, a head cold and B's daughter.  I usually always make time to run, and I've even brought her with me, but we were just constantly running around.  Now that things are settled back down, and I'm back at work, I'm back to running.  Half Marathon training starts after V-Day.  

I'm sitting here drinking my coffee and rubbing Nora's belly with my foot under the desk.  She stands just so her belly rests on my crossed legs.  I really don't want to leave home.  How awesome would it be to work from home.  I could stay with my favorite person, dog and least favorite cats (Omar bothers the crap out of me all night long).  One day, I'm going to find something that I love to do and do it.   Ok.  I guess with that being said, I should get my butt out of the door!  I miss commenting on blogs at work.  I read them, but I never get around to commenting once I get home.  I hope to do that tonight!  

OK.  I'm done rambling.  I hope everyone is having a great day!
